SHARE, CASE STUDIES BY FRAMA VOL. 1
SHARE, Case Studies by FRAMA Vol. 1 is a profound study of the "design archetype." This volume navigates the aesthetic world of the Copenhagen-based Frama Studio, a creative force known for its commitment to natural materials, simple geometry, and the pursuit of permanency. This work is a definitive record of how design can redefine the purpose of a space while remaining tethered to its historic roots. It values honesty in materials and simplicity in form, offering a tactile archive for those who appreciate a straightforward, graphic approach to modern living.
Within this substantial and handsomely produced volume, the concept of the "shareable" book is once again realized. Containing fifty pieces of artwork, the collection documents Frama’s most significant project work across their various spheres—from furniture and lighting to kitchens and apothecary. Every page is perforated, intended to be removed and displayed, allowing the studio’s visual narrative to move beyond the binding and into the personal environments of the reader. The narrative moves through iconic locations, including the St. Pauls Apotek in Copenhagen—a historic space dating back to 1878—as well as studio apartments in Stockholm and Oslo. Through a combination of photography and illustration, the book explores how Frama’s collections (Permanent, Studio, St. Pauls, and Study) contribute to a cohesive cultural presence. It is more than a portfolio; it is a conceptual landmark that celebrates the return to basics. By documenting these case studies in a permanent format, the project transforms a studio’s philosophy into a lasting visual asset, encouraging a deeper appreciation for the timeless dialogue between historic architecture and honest, contemporary design.
